Abstract

The invention relates to a labelling station characterized in that the labels which are held by the receiving surface (2a) of a removal member (2) are marked by means of a writing laser (7a) in a marking device (7). In order to execute such a marking on the whole length of the label, it is provided that the rotary motion of the removal members (2, 3) located before and behind the label container (5) be directed in such a way that enough free space remains between the removal member (3) located before the label box (5) and the latter (5) to enable the laser to run almost vertically on the whole writing length of the label held by the receiving surface (2a) of the other removal member (2).

Description

Etikettierstation für Gegenstände, wie Flaschen, mit einer Markierungseinrichtung für die EtikettenLabeling station for objects, such as bottles, with a marking device for the labels
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Etikettiermaschine für Gegenstände, wie Flaschen, mit einem sich drehenden Träger, auf dem mehrere rotierend oder verschwenkbar angetriebene Entnahmeelemente mit konkav gewölbten Aufnahmeflächen für Etiketten angeordnet sind, und mit außen am Umfang des Drehtischs angeordneten Stationen, und zwar einer Leimwalze, einem Etikettenkasten und einer Etikettenübertragungsstation, mit denen nacheinander die Entnahmeelemente mit ihren Aufnahmeflächen unter Aufnahme von Leim, Entnahme eines Etiketts und Übergabe des Etiketts zusammenwirken, wobei eineThe invention relates to a labeling machine for objects, such as bottles, with a rotating carrier on which a plurality of rotating or pivotally driven removal elements with concavely curved receiving surfaces for labels are arranged, and with stations arranged on the outside of the periphery of the turntable, namely a glue roller, one Label box and a label transfer station, with which the removal elements interact with their receiving surfaces in succession with glue, removal of a label and transfer of the label, one
Markierungseinrichtung mit einem schreibenden Laserstrahl seitlich neben dem Etikettenkasten verschwenkbar angeordnet ist und mit ihrem Laserstrahl während der Etikettenentnahme senkrecht auf das von der Aufnahmefläche gehaltene Etikett gerichtet ist.Marking device with a writing laser beam is arranged laterally next to the label box and is directed with its laser beam perpendicular to the label held by the receiving surface during label removal.
Etikettierstationen dieser Art sind aus der Praxis bekannt. Sofern die Träger mit mehreren Entnahmeelementen bestückt sind, bleibt zu wenig Freiraum, um mit dem Laserstrahl möglichst verzerrungsfrei ein Etikett über eine große Länge zu beschriften.Labeling stations of this type are known from practice. If the carrier is equipped with several removal elements, there is not enough space to label the label over a long length with as little distortion as possible.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Etikettierstation der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die über eine große Länge des Etiketts eine möglichst verzerrungsfreie Beschriftung ermöglicht. Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Etikettierstation der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, daß die in Drehrichtung des Trägers vor und hinter dem Etikettenkasten befindlichen Entnahmeelemente in ihren Drehbewegungen derart gesteuert werden, daß das vor dem Etikettenkasten befindliche, noch kein Etikett tragende Entnahmeelement genügend Freiraum gegenüber dem Etikettenkasten für den Durchtritt des über die gesamte Beschriftungslänge im wesentlichen senkrecht auf das von der Aufnahmefläche des anderen Entnahmeelements gehaltene Etikett gerichteten Laserstrahl frei läßt. Vorzugsweise wird das hinter dem Etikettenkasten befindliche Entnahmeelement nach Verlassen des Etikettenkastens in seiner Drehbewegung beschleunigt, während das vor dem Etikettenkasten befindliche Entnahmeelement vor Erreichen des Etikettenkastens in seiner Drehbewegung verzögert wird.The object of the invention is to create a labeling station of the type mentioned at the outset which enables labeling that is as distortion-free as possible over a large length of the label. This object is achieved in a labeling station of the type mentioned in that the removal elements located in front of and behind the label box in the direction of rotation of the carrier are controlled in their rotational movements in such a way that the removal element located in front of the label box and not yet bearing a label has sufficient free space in relation to the label box for the passage of the laser beam directed essentially perpendicularly onto the label held by the receiving surface of the other removal element over the entire labeling length. Preferably, the removal element located behind the label box is accelerated in its rotational movement after leaving the label box, while the rotational movement of the removal element located in front of the label box is delayed before reaching the label box.
Mit der Erfindung ist es möglich, das von der Aufnahmefläche des Entnahmeelements in Drehrichtung des Trägers bis hinter dem Etikettenkasten gehaltene Etikett auf seiner gesamten Länge verzerrungsfrei zu beschriften, weil zum einen die Markierungsstation unter Berücksichtigung der Drehbewegung des Entnahmeelements vor dem Etikettenkasten in eine Schwenkstellung gebracht werden kann, bei der der Laserstrahl störungsfrei durch den verbliebenen Freiraum hindurch auf die Aufnahmefläche des anderen Entnahmeelements auftreffen kann, und weil zum anderen durch die Drehbewegung des Entnahmeelements, dessen Aufnähmetlache das Etikett hält, hinter dem Etikettenkasten die Aufnahmefläche im Bereich des Auftreffpunkts des Laserstrahls senkrecht zum Laserstrahl gebracht werden kann. Die Beschleunigung und/oder Verzögerung der Entnahmeelemente ist für eine störungsfreie Etikettenabnahme nicht von Nachteil, weil während der Abwälzbewegung der Aufnahmefläche am Etikettenkasten die gesteuerte Drehbewegung unverändert bleibt.With the invention it is possible to label the label held from the receiving surface of the removal element in the direction of rotation of the carrier to behind the label box without distortion over its entire length because, firstly, the marking station is brought into a pivoting position in front of the label box, taking into account the rotary movement of the removal element can, in which the laser beam can hit the receiving surface of the other removal element without interference through the remaining free space, and because, on the other hand, due to the rotational movement of the removal element, the receiving surface of which holds the label, the receiving surface in the area of the point of impact of the laser beam perpendicular to the area behind the label box Laser beam can be brought. The acceleration and / or deceleration of the removal elements is not a disadvantage for trouble-free label removal because the controlled rotary movement remains unchanged during the rolling movement of the receiving surface on the label box.
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand einer ein Ausführungsbeispiel schematisch darstellenden Zeichnung näher erläutert. Die einzelnen Figuren zeigen den Markierungsvorgang eines Etiketts in verschiedenen aufeinanderfolgenden Phasen.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to a drawing schematically illustrating an exemplary embodiment. The individual figures show the labeling process of a label in different successive phases.
Die Etikettierstation besteht aus einem sich drehenden Träger 1 mit einer Vielzahl von verteilt angeordneten Entnahmeelementen, von denen in den Figuren nur zwei benachbarte Entnahmeelemente 2,3 dargestellt sind. Außen am Umfang des Trägers 1 sind stationär drei Stationen, und zwar eine Leimwalze 4, ein Etikettenkasten 5 mit darin hintereinander in einem Stapel angeordneten Etiketten, und ein Etikettenübertragungszylinder (Greiferzylinder) 6 angeordnet. Der Träger 1, die Entnahmeelemente 2,3, die Leimwalze 4 und der Greiferzylinder 6 führen eine Drehbewegung entsprechend den eingetragenen Pfeilen aus.The labeling station consists of a rotating carrier 1 with a multiplicity of removal elements arranged in a distributed manner, of which only two adjacent removal elements 2, 3 are shown in the figures. On the outside of the circumference of the carrier 1 there are three stationary stations, namely a glue roller 4, a label box 5 with labels arranged one behind the other in a stack, and a label transfer cylinder (gripper cylinder) 6. The carrier 1, the removal elements 2, 3, the glue roller 4 and the gripper cylinder 6 perform a rotary movement in accordance with the arrows entered.
Den Entnahmeelementen 2,3 ist ein in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellter, aber wohl bekannter Antrieb zugeordnet, der den Entnahmeelementen 2,3 bei gleichförmiger Rotation des Trägers 1 eine ungleichförmige Drehbewegung derart verleiht, daß sich die Entnahmeelemente 2,3 mit ihren konvex gekrümmten Aufnahmeflächen 2a, 3a an den unterschiedlich gekrümmten, bewegten oder feststehenden Flächen der einzelnen Stationen 4,5,6 abwälzen und dabei an der Leimwalze 3 Leim aufnehmen, aus dem Etikettenkasten 5 unter Haftwirkung des Leims Etiketten entnehmen und diese Etiketten an den Etikettenübertragungszylinder 6 übergeben. Seitlich neben dem Etikettenkasten 5 ist eine Markierungseinrichtung 7 in Form einer Laserkanone verschwenkbar angeordnet. Die Markierungseinrichtung 6 ist in Richtung des Doppelpfeils verschwenkbar. Ihr schreibender Laserstrahl 7a ist senkrecht auf die konvex gekrümmte Aufnahmefläche 2a des Entnahmeelements 2 gerichtet. Wie Figur 1 zeigt, hat die Aufnahmefläche 2a mit einem Teil bereits vom Etikettenkasten 5 abgehoben und dabei ein Etikett entnommen. Der Laserstrahl 7a trifft senkrecht auf dieses von der Aufnahmefläche 2a gehaltene Etikett, und zwar in einem Seitenrand. Bei weiterer Verdrehung des Entnahmeelements 2 in Richtung des Pfeils wird aμch die Markierungseinrichtung 7 verschwenkt, derart, daß ihr Laserstrahl 7a weiter senkrecht auf das von der Aufnahmefläche 2a gehaltene Etikett auftrifft, bis endlich der andere Rand des Etiketts erreicht ist.The removal elements 2, 3 are assigned a drive, which is not shown in the drawing, but which is well known, which gives the removal elements 2, 3 with uniform rotation of the carrier 1, a non-uniform rotary movement such that the removal elements 2 3 with their convexly curved receiving surfaces 2 a , 3a roll on the differently curved, moving or stationary surfaces of the individual stations 4, 5, 6 and thereby take up glue on the glue roller 3, remove labels from the label box 5 under the adhesive effect of the glue and transfer these labels to the label transfer cylinder 6. A marking device 7 in the form of a laser cannon is arranged pivotably to the side of the label box 5. The marking device 6 can be pivoted in the direction of the double arrow. Your writing laser beam 7a is directed perpendicularly onto the convexly curved receiving surface 2a of the removal element 2. As shown in FIG. 1, part of the receiving surface 2a has already lifted off the label box 5 and in the process removed a label. The laser beam 7a strikes this label held by the receiving surface 2a perpendicularly, specifically in a side edge. Upon further rotation of the removal element 2 in the direction of the arrow, the marking device 7 is also pivoted such that its laser beam 7a strikes the label held by the receiving surface 2a further vertically until the other edge of the label is finally reached.
Damit eine Beschriftung über die gesamte Länge des Etiketts bei senkrecht auftreffendem Laserstrahl 7a möglich ist, wird nicht nur die Markierungseinrichtung 7 verschwenkt, sondern auch noch die Drehbewegung der Entnahmeelemente 2 und 3 gesteuert. Insbesondere wird die Drehbewegung des Entnahmeelements 2 beschleunigt, wenn das Entnahmeelement 2 den Etikettenkasten 5 verlassen hat. Außerdem kann der Freiraum für den Durchtritt des Laserstrahls 7a dadurch großgehalten werden, daß die Drehbewegung des Entnahmeelements 3 möglichst lange verzögert wird. Es bleibt dann immer noch nach Erreichen des Endes des Etiketts durch den Laserstrahl 7a genügend Zeit, um das Entnahmeelement 3 zu beschleunigen, um die vorgegebenen Abwälzbedingungen der Aufnahmefläche 3a am Etikettenkasten 5 zu erfüllen. So that labeling over the entire length of the label is possible when the laser beam 7a strikes vertically, not only is the marking device 7 pivoted, but also the rotational movement of the removal elements 2 and 3 is controlled. In particular, the rotational movement of the removal element 2 is accelerated when the removal element 2 has left the label box 5. In addition, the free space for the passage of the laser beam 7a can be kept large by delaying the rotational movement of the removal element 3 as long as possible. There is still enough time after the end of the label by the laser beam 7a to accelerate the removal element 3 in order to meet the predetermined rolling conditions of the receiving surface 3a on the label box 5.
